How Does European Poker Work??

William Hill, Bet365 and Betfred are part of the ipoker network,one of the biggest in europe, whilst Ladbrokes is on the Microgaming network,not so much traffic there ,but when you sign up through raketherake.com you have gigantic promotions like rake races WSOP freerolls ,ipod giveaways etc etc.

many other like BWIN who are owner of the Ongame network, which is my favorite network ,are together on this network with Betsson,bet24,Europker,Betfair and Tower Gaming,extreme loose because guys blow there sportsbook winnings here, you have to sign up through a good affilliate , I recommend raketherake.com,Pokerlistings,or Rakebacklovers.com

It's not necessary but knowing the European language is helpful.

JJ, you always see tons of euros at these poker tourneys, even in the US. Everything about Europe is heading in a better direction than the US is gaming wise. I wouldnt be surprised to see betwin, party poker come back into the US market at some point.

At this point, I think most players really miss party poker and titan poker, I never thought I would hear many people say that about party poker. They have literally hundreds of Sit and Go tournaments are running all the time, but these are not good days to be an american online poker player. I am still waiting for bodog to take off. We will see, its still a rather mediocre product right now.
